I had pixelation issues in the early goings of last night's game. It happened a couple of times, once being so bad it was unwatchable. There was another instance of half the screen going green, then black, then a bunch of blocks. Lasted about 10-15 seconds.
I didn't stay up much past 10:30 so I don't know if it continued throughout the game or not. I use Comcast BTW.

I don't know if it's just me, but I regularly experience sound drop outs on FOX, and only on Fox. For my dropouts, they last about a half second, they occur at all hours, and they repeat on a 3 to 8 minute frequency. has anyone else noticed this?
This might just be a need for a realignment of my antenna. --Bill |

Bill,
I've been out of town for a couple of weeks, but when I returned and started catching up on programs via Tivo, I too noticed some FOX programs with the dropout you mentioned. For me, they weren't total sound blocks, but rather brief, significant volume reductions that occurred with a regular pattern. I was actually concerned that it might have been my Tivo, but your message gives me reason to not worry about it. With regards to FOX last night, I didn't watch any TV last night so I can't comment.

Okay after the last 2 weeks watching CBS games, the CBS HD NFL game on Directv is much better than the SEC game. Not sure if this is a local thing or what. I doubt it since all the rest of the CBS lineup is rock solid. I like the colors better on CBS better than the ESPN/ABC cameras. There is some pixelation on the SEC game, but like I said before, I think it is only on the fast motion close-ups. It is not bad on the NFL game. Different trucks, maybe?? Who knows?

Oh, well, it looks like ABC (at the Game site) are having issues, but they have been working on it.

Yeah I noticed that the guide info is right on the 7-1 station, but the other subchannels don't have the guide info, and it looks like 7-1 was all over the place last night as far a signal strength was concerned anyone else notice that?

I am still having problems with 7-1 "stuttering". Oddly 7-2 and 7-3 are fine.
30-1 keeps waivering from 0 to 100. Has anything unusual happened to the signal recently? This used to peg at 100 on my Hughes E86.

Peter, 7-1 and the other subchannels are still jittery. I am having no problems with 30-1 - how much heat is your E86 generating, could this be the problem??
Ben, I can't speak to WB on Comcast here in Jax, but we definately get their OTA digital and HD signal. Someone else here might be able to answer that for you.

My e86 is sitting on top of my Mitsubishi HDTV, but it does run very hot. It gets quite a lot of air circulation, but is quite hot to the touch. Is that normal?

Ben,
To answer your question, Comcast is the only cable provider here in Jax. They do not carry the hd feed of our local WB station nor the widescreen feed of the local Fox station. They do carry the hd feeds from CBS, ABC, NBC, and PBS.
